Forgive erring members Sugar advises APC national leaders

A member of the House of
Representatives, Rep. Temitope
Sugar (APC- Oyo) has advised
the national leadership of the
All Progressives Congress, APC,
to forgive all erring members of
party in order to move the party
forward.
He gave the advice at the
weekend in an interview with
interview with journalists in
Abuja.
Sugar urged the party to
embrace all members and treat
them as equals no matter the
position they held.
According to him, whatever
transpired during the National
Assembly elections should be
seen as the will of God, saying
that it was too early for the party
to be having squabbles.
Some of the members of the
APC have said that the election
of key officers of the 8th National
Assembly did not go according
to the party’s directives.
The elections produced Sen.
Olusola Saraki (APC-Kwara)
as the President of the Senate
and Rep. Yakubu Dogara (APCBauchi)
as Speaker of the House
of Representatives.
“The only thing I will advice is
for our national leaders to try to
treat everybody who belongs to
the APC the same way.
“Whether you’re a senator or
whatever and at the same time
whosoever might have gone
beyond their boundary, the
laws, the rules, the guidelines
being set in by our party, they
should try and forgive.
“They should try to introduce
love, God himself is love.
“And whosoever that has
done something wrong today
might be the best of tomorrow,
so they should try and romance
everybody.’’
Sugar, however, cautioned
against expelling erring
members, saying such action
could spell doom for the party.
